When a validator is being shut down, the associated name

The :iscman:`named` process could terminate unexpectedly when
processing a catalog zone with an invalid ``allow-query`` or
``allow-transfer`` custom property (i.e. having a non-APL type)
coexisting with the valid property. This has been fixed.
Closes#5941
Merge branch '5941-catz-catz_process_apl-bug-fix' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11954
The allow-transfer/allow-query catalog zone custom properties support
only APL RRtypes. All other types are correctly rejected by the
catz_process_apl() function. However, when an APL RRtype is processed
by that function, and another (non-APL) RRtype is then attempted to be
processed, there is an assertion failure happening in the prologue
of the function because `*aclbp != NULL` (i.e. an APL has been already
processed). Move the code to do type checking before the affected
REQUIRE assertion.
The :iscman:`named` process could leak small amounts of memory
when processing a catalog zone entry which had defined custom
primary servers with TSIG keys using both the regular ``primaries``
custom property syntax and the legacy alternative syntax (``masters``)
at the same time. This has been fixed.
Closes#5943

An assertion failure could be triggered if both `dns64` and the `filter-aaaa` plugin were in use simultaneously. This happened if the plugin triggered a second recursion process, which then attempted to store DNS64 state information in a pointer that had already been set by the original recursion process. This has been fixed.
Closes#5854
Merge branch '5854-dns64-aaaaok' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11949
The DNS64 state information stored in client->query.dns64_aaaaok
could cause an assertion failure in query_respond() if the server
was configured in such a way as to trigger a new recursion before
the query had been reset - for example, by using the filter-aaaa
plugin, which may need to recurse to find out whether an A record
exists.
This has been addressed by clearing DNS64 state information
immediately after the call to query_filter64().
In previous_closest_nsec(), a new qpreader was opened to search the NSEC
tree. It was possible for that to be used to update a QP iterator object
owned by the caller, and then be destroyed when the function returned.
This qpreader object isn't necessary anymore; since namespaces were
added to the QP trie in commit 15653c54a0, we can now just reuse the
existing reader for the main tree.

Merge branch '5938-ref-ntatable' into 'main'

Each dns__nta_t now references its parent ntatable in nta_create() and
releases it in dns__nta_destroy(). This avoids a use-after-free in
fetch_done() and other callbacks that dereference nta->ntatable: the
ntatable could otherwise be released by view destruction while an
in-flight resolver fetch still holds a reference to the NTA.
A DNSKEY record appearing before the first ';; KeySigningRequest'
header in a KSR file made dnssec-ksr abort on an internal assertion
instead of producing a structured error, killing pipelines that

the rdatalist->ttl update goes away too.

When BIND was asked to store a record set whose total size exceeds
what fits in a DNS message, it would allocate memory and build the
structure, then fail later at response time. Such oversized record
sets are now rejected at the time of storage with an error, avoiding
wasted work on data that can never be served.
Merge branch 'ondrej/harden-buflen-overflow' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11963
makeslab(), makevec(), dns_rdatavec_merge() and dns_rdatavec_subtract()
summed per-record storage into an unsigned int with no upper-bound
check. An RRset whose total encoded size exceeds DNS_RDATA_MAXLENGTH
cannot fit in a DNS message and is unservable; building its in-memory
representation only burns memory on data that will fail at response
time, and at the upper bound the running sum could in theory wrap.
Cap the running total at DNS_RDATA_MAXLENGTH and return ISC_R_NOSPACE
when exceeded. Update the qpdb cache memory-purge test to use a
record size that fits within the new limit.

KEY resource records originally defined NOAUTH, NOCONF, EXTENDED, and
ENTITY flags that were removed by RFC 3445 back in 2002. BIND still
carried code to parse and emit them, including the additional two-octet
flags field that followed when the EXTENDED bit was set. That handling
has been removed and the affected bit positions are now reserved.
Dropping the extended-flags handling also eliminates a possible crash
that could be reached when signing a zone containing an invalid key.
Closes#5900
Merge branch '5900-remove-keyflag-extended' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11961
RFC 3445 also eliminated the DNS_KEYTYPE_NOAUTH, DNS_KEYTYPE_NOCONF,
and DNS_KEYOWNER_ENTITY flags. With NOAUTH and NOCONF gone, the
concept of NOKEY can no longer be expressed in KEY records.
DNS_KEYOWNER_ENTITY was already unused as of 22d688f656 but still
defined; that is now also removed.
The DNS_KEYFLAG_EXTENDED flag was only legitimate for type KEY
and was eliminated by RFC 3445. Dropping the extended-flags
handling in pub_compare() also fixes a possible crash when
signing a zone whose journal contains a crafted DNSKEY: a
6-byte record with the EXTENDED bit set produced a memmove()
length that underflowed and ran off a stack buffer.
With response rate limiting enabled, an attacker sending queries from many
spoofed source addresses could steer entries into the same slot of the
internal rate-limit table and slow down query processing on the affected
server. The table now uses a per-process keyed hash so the placement of
entries cannot be predicted or influenced from the network.
Closes#5906
Merge branch '5906-rrl-hash-collision-dos' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11950
The previous hash_key() was a deterministic, unkeyed (<<1) + add over the
key words. An off-path attacker could invert it offline and submit
queries whose source /24, qname hash, and qtype map to a single bucket;
under chaining this turns every lookup into an O(N) walk under
rrl->lock and starves legitimate query processing on the very feature
deployed to mitigate DoS.
Replace it with isc_hash32(), which is HalfSipHash-2-4 keyed by a
per-process random seed, so collision sets cannot be precomputed.

Configuring the root zone as a signed primary with parental agents (or with
notify-on-cds-changes) caused named to exit on an internal assertion as soon
as the DS-publication machinery tried to look up the parent NS RRset — the root
has no parent. The lookup is now short-circuited cleanly.
Similar, a zone with no NS records in the parent caused named to exit in the same way.

Once the walk reaches the root, splitting one more label off would
trip an internal assertion and abort named. Stop cleanly with
ISC_R_NOTFOUND so the dispatcher cancels the fetch. Only reachable
through misconfiguration (root configured as a primary with parental
agents, or a parent zone that NODATAs its own NS).
Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7
This is required to AXFR and verify the root zone and it makes no
difference for non-root zones (dnssec-verify takes FQDN or makes the
provided name absolute).
Add a test case where the root zone has dnssec-policy configured, with
checkds enabled. This is a silly case because the root does not have
any parent NS records, but it should not crash the server.
The same is true for zones that do not have parent NS records, but
eventually they will hit the same code path.
A rare crash has been observed in named while it is resolving upstream nameserver
addresses for a recursive query, surfacing as a segmentation fault with no immediate
clue as to the cause. This change adds internal consistency checks so that a future
occurrence of the same condition aborts named with a diagnostic message at the point
the inconsistency arises, rather than corrupting state and crashing later in
an unrelated location.

Merge branch '5602-adb-find-sanity-checks' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11943
The dns_adbfind_t lifetime model has no reference counting; storage
liveness is held together by find->lock and the FIND_EVENT_SENT
idempotency flag, plus an unwritten cross-module rule that all
non-trivial operations on a find run on find->loop. If a caller
violates that rule, the unlock-relock window in dns_adb_cancelfind
(and similar paths) becomes a use-after-free and we crash later
inside libpthread on a corrupted mutex.
Add REQUIREs at dns_adb_cancelfind, dns_adb_destroyfind and
find_sendevent so a violation aborts at the offending call site
rather than silently freeing storage another loop is still touching.
Also poison find->magic with ~DNS_ADBFIND_MAGIC in free_adbfind so
DNS_ADBFIND_VALID catches reuse-after-free at the next public entry
point instead of letting the dangling pointer reach the mutex code.

dig's parser for EDNS options in a DNS reply now stops cleanly when an
option declares a length that runs past the end of the option data,
rather than trusting the upstream OPT-record validator to reject the
reply first. This is a defensive change; behavior is unchanged in
practice.
Merge branch 'ondrej/dig-process-opt-edns-optlen-oob' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11937
process_opt() reads the per-option (optcode, optlen) header from the
OPT rdata and then advances the buffer by optlen, both for the COOKIE
branch (via process_cookie()) and for any other optcode. The walk
itself never compared optlen to the buffer remainder; the only reason
it cannot trip the isc_buffer_forward() REQUIRE today is that
fromwire_opt() (lib/dns/rdata/generic/opt_41.c) already validates each
option's length against the rdata bounds before the rdataset is
handed back, so process_opt() never sees a self-inconsistent rdata.
That upstream guarantee is fine, but it leaves the local walker
trusting an invariant established elsewhere. Add a defensive check
that just stops the walk when a future caller (a cached message, an
alternate parser, a refactor of the OPT validator) hands process_opt()
a buffer where optlen would run past the end.

The dnssec-* tools accepted negative and out-of-range values for TTL
flags such as dnssec-keygen -L, dnssec-signzone -t and
dnssec-settime -L, silently turning them into TTLs of around 136 years
in the resulting key or zone files. The flag values are now validated
and rejected with a clear "TTL must be non-negative" or "TTL out of
range" error.
Closes#5923
Merge branch '5923-dnssectool-strtottl-negative-ttl-accepted' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!11933
strtottl() parsed the operator's TTL string with strtol() and assigned
the long directly to dns_ttl_t (uint32_t) with no sign or ERANGE
check. The only validation was the "no digits parsed" branch, so a
fully-consumed "-1" became UINT32_MAX (~136 years) and was silently
written into DNSKEY/key files by dnssec-keygen -L, dnssec-signzone -t,
dnssec-settime -L, etc. Any signing pipeline interpolating the TTL
from a variable could mint a key with a multi-decade TTL and never see
an error.
Switch to strtoul(), reject a leading '-' explicitly (strtoul silently
negates), check errno == ERANGE, and reject values exceeding
UINT32_MAX before handing the result to time_units(). The pre-existing
multiplication wrap inside time_units() is tracked separately.

A crafted DNSKEY rdata whose declared exponent length consumed the

The wire-format RSA DNSKEY parser used the residual rdata length after
the exponent as the modulus length, with no positive lower bound. A
crafted DNSKEY whose declared exponent length consumed the whole buffer
produced n = 0; the BN_bin2bn(_, 0, _) returned a non-NULL BIGNUM, the
NULL-check passed, and dnssec-importkey -f wrote out a "valid" key with
no key material. RSASHA1 also bypassed the algorithm-specific lower
bound in opensslrsa_createctx (which only checks an upper bound for the
SHA1 algorithms), so the degenerate key reached the verify path with
whatever behaviour the linked OpenSSL exhibits for n = 0.
Add OPENSSLRSA_MIN_MODULUS_BITS = 512 (the lowest legitimate modulus
across the RSA DNSSEC algorithms per RFC 5702) and reject smaller
moduli at parse time in opensslrsa_fromdns, opensslrsa_parse, and
opensslrsa_fromlabel — the same three load paths where the existing
exponent upper-bound check lives.
